In 2013, Children’s Ministries and Student Ministries began exploring what our ministries might look like if we took a “cradle to college” approach. In other words, how might things look and operate differently if both ministries were working together with the same goal in mind? What if we shared the goal of helping a nursery child grow to become a fully devoted follower of Christ? What would that look like? How would our nursery workers set up our preschoolers for success? How might a 5th grade teacher set up a student for success in middle school? What might a high schooler need to know before they head into adulthood?

Internally, this is an ongoing conversation as we strive to give our very best to the children we have been entrusted with.  answers to these questions have given clarity to every Family Ministry volunteer. They now know exactly where they fit into the process and what their goal is for a child's current stage of life? The goal of Family Ministry is to facilitate spiritual growth at every phase of life - from cradle to college.
